    Dragonflies on Parade

    Dragonflies on Parade

    Yesterday I went for a personal photowalk at Riverside Park in Roswell Georgia.  I didn’t have a particular plan when I left, really I just went to practice and find something different to shoot…and I found it.  There were dragonflies everywhere!  I love them and I’ve always admired the amazing shots of them that I’ve [...]

    August Moon

    August Moon

    I have always marveled at photographs of the moon.  Probably partly because I grew up during the space race and watched every scrap of coverage on television, with my parents.  I wondered and dreamed what it would be like to go there, what it would look like up close and truly stared in awe at [...]

    VPW – Theme – August – Extreme Close-up

    This guy and three of his closest friends decimated two Banana Pepper and one Jalapeno plants in less than a week.  We knew something was going on because we could see droppings around the container that the plants were in, but we thought it was a “critter” like birds, chipmunks, something like that.  We didn’t [...]

    VPW – Theme – August – In Shadow

    I’ve always loved lightning pictures and figured one day I’d get around to trying to capture a few on my own.  I haven’t done the first bit of research on the best way to do this, so there is no technical magic here at all.  However, after going through this exercise and seeing what I [...]

    Mysterious Evidence

    They tried to destroy the proof, but I found this damaged photo. Perhaps Jurassic Park wasn’t just a movie? Objects in Mirror ARE larger than they appear. This one is really just for fun.  I was sorting images and when I ran across this one I noticed the dinosaur’s reflection in the glass and I [...]

    HDR - Rusty Pier

    HDR – Rusty Pier

    This image was taken at South Beach in Hilton Head off the pier there. The rust really attracted me and I love the complimentary color scheme with the green of the wood. Very highly processed through CS5 HDR Pro along with adjustments for vibrance, saturation, color and levels. I really enjoy the super crunchy look [...]

    Absence and Redesign

    First, I would like to apologize to all my compatriots in the Virtual Photowalk 2010. I joined up and then promptly disappeared for over a month. Unfortunately it was because my Mom, who lived with me, became very ill and ultimately passed away. On top of that, we had a family vacation planned that took me away for another week afterward.

    Either way, though, I am back and trying to jump right back in. I’ve completely redesigned my site. I was really unhappy with Zenphoto so I’ve switched over to WordPress and re-uploaded all the images that were previously posted along with several new ones. Don’t worry about trying to re-comment on any of the old ones, unless you want too…no pressure though.

    Please let me know what you think of the new design and provide any suggestions that you may have. I would like to remind you that I am a true amateur photographer and have much to learn, so please don’t be gentle on your photo comments either. I really want and need the feedback.

    Thank you for visiting and come back often!
